Fading away
Tristan Robert Lange said:
Sylva, what a beautifully bittersweet piece. All those wonderfully ordinary childhood details brought back that strange feeling of realizing the child we once were is getting farther away...yet traces of them remain everywhere. This really moved me, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

Sad when feels that they are not accepted for who they are. A sad poem of flight.

Sylva, this hit me hard. I know what it is to feel trapped within other people’s expectations…and the longing to escape rather than endure another day unseen is devastating. You convey that pain with profound honesty, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️

There\'s a yearning in this write, a wanting to be validated but the message seems to be lost.
You can see why kids turn out bonkers, when just a few minutes of time can change the thought pattern and even the life of a child.
Great write.

Never enough
Tristan Robert Lange said:
SYLVA, what a painfully powerful poem. You capture the terrible contradiction of feeling deeply loved yet continually measured...until affection begins to feel inseparable from failure. This truly moved me, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Remember, age is just a number.
Though fourteen is double digits, and before you know it, twenty is round the corner.

Sylva, this really touched me. There\'s something so honest about looking forward and backward at the same time...wanting to hold onto childhood while wondering what comes next. Beautifully heartfelt, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

I was eight, fifty seven years ago.
The thing I noticed with aging is - you get past worrying.

A lovely poem Sylva of how time flies by and how change is inevitable wanted or not. It gets faster the older we get. A fave

Sylva, this really touched me. \"Listen to me, just don\'t tell me not to cry\" especially resonated, and the closing refrain brings the whole poem home so gently. We all need those moments when someone can honor our need for space without letting us feel forgotten. Beautiful write, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

Those that think of only self do not love. A wonderful poem Sylva that draws attention to what love is. The print is a bit small for my old eyes but worth the strain.

Sylva, what a heartfelt piece. I love that this isn\'t about grand adventures as much as it is about finding someone with whom even the smallest moments become meaningful. By the end, the repeated wish, \"If only we\'d been friends,\" carries a quiet ache that lingers long after the poem ends. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It is the last line that makes this poem a recognition of one\'s own faults and admission. It is a twist that is abrupt and turns the poem on its head. Very nicely done a fave
